Just from discussion traffic on this site it seems to me at least : Replacing stock seat. Some type of wind screen with Road Comets and Dart Screens of various styles being right up there at the top. Changing silver side covers to red is popular. Exhaust slip ons and then exhaust mods ( headers and all) seem to get a lot of traction. Once the Oem tires wear out most of us seem to move to another style/brand. Rear Racks come up a lot in discussion here. As does luggage and tank bags. Performance mods seem to make up less of the traffic here but include ECU reflash/air box mod/serious suspension changes etc.

Add highway pegs to the list of mods. Gaiters also come to mind. I like the Street Scene EX in warm weather and PS2 screen for cool weather.

Seat, side panels, gaiters, chrome trim.
I do not find RLET. [url=http://postimage.org/] [url=http://postimage.org/index.php?lang=italian]caricare immagini

I'm awaiting delivery of my first two aftermarket items: an Alaska Leather Sheepskin Buttpad (size Medium, with front strap) and a Road Gear Jumbo Sport Tail Bag (they're having a 59% off going-out-of-business sale, btw...look online for the promo code).
https://alaskaleather.com/collections/sh...n-buttpads http://roadgear.com/jumbo-sport-tail-p-73.html The SW-Motech engine guards have my eye, just as a mount point for aux lights and/or highway pegs. Next on my list is probably a windscreen; likely a National Cycle Plexistar 2, but I'm looking around for higher-quality hardware for the fork mounting points (my baby deserves better than adjustable metal hose clamps, at least until proven otherwise). All the decent-sized saddlebag solutions appear to require moving the rear turn signals back toward the tail light / license plate bracket, and I've had trouble gleaning the cleanest / lowest cost / preferred path for that. In the meantime I'm leaning toward piling things atop the rear seat (hence the tail bag above) and maybe adding a Kijima rear rack. Top boxes are fugly but all my friends that have them swear by them. Enjoy the customization process; it will be a process with this bike.

Where do folks get most of their accessories? Is there a great price on the Honda accessories somewhere?

LOTS of stuff we get from samurider.com or japan.webike.net Both are reputable, but Mr. T of Samurider speakes English and has awesome customer service. He is also a forum sponser.
Accessories for this bike tend to be on the expensive side. Or at least not cheap side. Except for RLETs which are about 3 bucks each at the dealer

I get most of mine from this site in the For Sale area.
